Breanna Pursell · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. An undersupply of GABA has been linked to seizures, as it can result in hyperexcitability of the neurons in the brain. Glutamate, serotonin, and ACh are not primarily inhibitory neurotransmitters and are not typically associated with seizures in the same way that GABA is.
